History
-
Malaysia's Internet age dates back to 1990. It started gradually, as the Malaysian Institute of Microelectronic Systems unveiled the "Joint Advanced Integrated Networking," the first Malaysian ISP. However, it was not until 1992 that Malaysia's people gained easy access to the global Internet. This was accomplished through the installation of a satellite link between Malaysia and the United States. Malaysia's second ISP, TMNet, was launched in 1995, and since then, the commercial and residential Internet usage in the country has grown steadily. Along with this growth, Malaysia has benefited from an accompanying increase in the number of web-hosting companies in the country.
Types
-
There are about 20 web-hosting companies that dominate the industry. Each offers a broad range of services that include: SSL Certificates, disk space, data transfer space, pre-installed web tools, email backup, spam blocker, email space, different levels of domain names, and content-management systems.
These companies' web-hosting packages are tailored to both business and personal use. Customers can also choose among different levels of hosting according to their needs.

Expert Insight
-
According to MalaysiaWebHostingReview.Com, a premier web-hosting review site, the top two Malaysian web-hosting companies are Exabytes and Shinjiru. Serverfreak, webserver and Webvisions round out the top five providers. The rating evaluations are based on the reliability, pricing and customer service of each web-hosting company.
Considerations
-
The nation's largest, most established web-hosting company is Exabytes, with over 15,000 domains hosted on their servers. Their web-hosting packages are offered with their 'ticketed email support' system, which guarantees their clients 24/7 customer service and support. Another key benefit is Exabytes' "Live Chat" service, which is designed to enable the company's web technicians to fix customer problems in real time, without the need for the customer to call in. They offer two web packages; each one offers more domains than comparable packages from other Malaysian web-hosting companies.
Benefits
-
For more than 10 years, Shinjiru has been the leading Asian web-hosting company. Unlike Exabytes, it offers both Linux-based and Windows-based hosting platforms. It also offers its clients the option of multiple domain hosting with both of its web-hosting packages. Shinjiru hosts over 10,000 domains and has been appointed by the Malaysia Network Information Center (MYNIC) as a reseller of the domain names with the .my extension.
